From the Sunday Times number one bestselling author Lucinda Riley, The Missing Sister is the seventh instalment in the multimillion selling epic series, The Seven Sisters.

The six D'Aplièse sisters have each embarked on incredible journeys to uncover the secrets of their origins, but one enigma remains: the identity and whereabouts of the seventh sister. With their adoptive father passing away, he leaves them with a single cryptic clue—a star-shaped emerald ring—which sets them on a quest to locate their missing sibling.

The search spans continents, leading the sisters to places as far-flung as New Zealand, Canada, England, France and Ireland. Each location brings new revelations about their heritage and the intricate, intertwining tales of love, courage, and sacrifice that began nearly a century ago. As they delve deeper into their ancestral past, the sisters come together, discovering bonds stronger than they ever imagined, driven by their shared mission to complete their family once and for all.

In their quest, the D'Aplièse sisters uncover stories of brave women from generations past who faced their own challenges and endured struggles to change the world around them. These historic narratives of female empowerment resonate deeply with the sisters, inspiring them to face their present with equal fortitude and unity.

Lucinda Riley crafts a narrative that is rich with historical context, emotional depth, and intricate storytelling. The Missing Sister is not only a saga about finding family but also a tribute to the enduring strength of women across time.

About the Author

Lucinda Riley was born in 1965 in Ireland, and after an early career as an actress in film, theatre and television, wrote her first book aged twenty-four. Her books have been translated into thirty-seven languages and continue to strike an emotional chord with all cultures around the world. The Seven Sisters series specifically has become a global phenomenon, creating its own genre, and there are plans to create a seven-season TV series. Her books have been nominated for numerous awards, including the Italian Bancarella prize, The Lovely Books award in Germany, and the Romantic Novel of the Year award. In 2020 she received the Dutch Platinum award for sales over 300,000 copies for a single novel in one year - an award last won by J K Rowling for Harry Potter. In collaboration with her son Harry Whittaker, she also devised a series of books for children called the Guardian Angels series, based on stories told to her children whenever they were facing a challenging situation. Harry then wrote the books, and they are now being published internationally. Though she brought up her four children mostly in Norfolk in England, in 2015 she fulfilled her dream of buying a remote farmhouse in West Cork, Ireland, which she always felt was her spiritual home, and indeed this was where her last five books were written. Lucinda was diagnosed with cancer in 2017 and died on June 11th 2021, surrounded by her family.
